Beg Wheel Throwing
Adult Classes | Available
Step by step instruction with a small group will get you working immediately on the wheel. Students will learn about using new tools, try a variety of throwing techniques, and explore glazing possibilities. Your repertoire as a potter will greatly expand during this course, growing your comfort working with this medium. As you enjoy the tactile qualities of clay, your projects will be fired with food safe glazes using stoneware clay.
Rebecca Matarazzi
Using a variety of techniques in clay, my objective is to produce pieces for utilitarian purposes that convey a sense of tradition while allowing new concepts and ideas to develop. I get inspiration from the natural environment, creating designs for the home and kitchen that are pleasing both visually and tactilely. My teaching style is to observe each student and assess their individual needs in perfecting our craft. With a BS in Ceramics, Penn State University, I spend my days working in my pottery studio, using the Florida sun to hasten drying while fresh pieces await their first firing!
